I don’t recall The Times asking me for a quote & I never read it. See the reporting from @manchestermill.bsky.social that quotes me instead.

You’ve got to hand it to Trump, he has a gift for gathering all the worst people in the world in his cabinet. It’s going to be a new Marvel movie, A***holes Assemble!

I just signed the campaign calling to save our swifts, by calling for the UK Government to follow Scotland's lead and make it the law for all new houses to be built with "swift bricks" - safe places for these birds to nest. Will you join me?

It’s more than just bad priorities. It’s about lack of basic decency.
A tweet from BrooklynDad_Defiant! says: “No words. If you think a golden ballroom is more important than childhood cancer research... I have nothing left to say to you.” The image shows an illustration of a bald child in a hospital gown, holding an IV pole and looking into an opulent golden ballroom filled with formally dressed adults.

Whatever you think of his proposals, I cheer any candidate who talks about women’s health as a campaign issue. Who in UK politics would issue a video like this?

Why in this Mandelson saga are we ignoring the elephant in the room? That we’re about to welcome and honour a man who was a great pal of Epstein and who continues to lie about that every day?

Some might say you create “an island of strangers” by creating a ‘them an us’ between migrants and everyone else. By making it harder for them to feel welcome and be British. By not telling the truth about our ageing population and our desperate need for more migrants and our dependence on them.

The mantra that the NHS just needs to cut “bureaucracy” to spend more on “frontline staff” is so unthinking. There will need to be extra investment in management/admin (eg new IT) in order to increase productivity.

 He talked about electric cars. I don't know anything
 about cars, so when people said he was a genius I
 figured he must be a genius.
 Then he talked about rockets. I don't know anything

 figured he must be a genius.
 Now he talks about software. I happen to know a lot
 about software & Elon Musk is saying the stupidest shit
 I've ever heard anyone say, so when people say he's a

 and rockets.

I’ve just heard top Israeli lawyer, Alan Baker, absurdly arguing on BBC that this ruling is illegitimate, because Palestine is not a state. But, who’s preventing Pal’n statehood? And, does that mean it’s ok for Israel to do what it wants? Flimsy and vile. Catch 22. www.reuters.com/world/icc-is...

The approach involves offering individuals a small apartment and mental health support without any initial conditions.

Not massively sympathetic to farmers about the IHT issue especially hearing Badenoch using them to play politics and knowing how many voted for Brexit against their own best interests. Most people have to sell the family home after their parents pass on if they're lucky enough to even have one.
